Philipp Artus (1982) grew up in Bremen/Germany and began studying art at the
Ecole des Beaux Arts in Nantes/France. He continued his autodidactic studies of
animation and music theory in Portugal and is currently finishing his graduation
project at the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne/Germany.

His experimental animations and site-specific installations explore the
manifestations of life through movement, sound and imagery. He composes
audiovisual experiences that unite playful elements with minimalist structures,
timeless themes with contemporary observations, turbulent acceleration with
contemplative silence.
.

His projects have been shown in various museums, festivals and galleries around the world including the SIGGRAPH conference in Los Angeles, Museum of Contemporary Art Kanazawa/Japan; European Media Art Festival in Osnabruck/Germany; Athens Video Art Festival in Greece; Videoformes in ClermontFerrand/France; LUMINALE in Frankfurt/Germany and the Vimeo Awards in New York City.
